Superlubricity by polyimide-induced alignment
Abstract We have investigated the lubrication alignment behavior of point-plane contact and plane-plane contact between the GCr15 steel and polyimide (PI) friction pair using nematic liquid crystals (LCs) as the lubricant. In this system, rubbing orients the macromolecular PI molecules, and the orie...
